Chris Drinkwater Posted June 2, 2015 Share Posted June 2, 2015 Great. You obviously had the Edgley, over all the other members of the orchestra! Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jody Kruskal Posted June 2, 2015 Author Share Posted June 2, 2015 Hey Chris, you are right there. I did have the edge and even against an orchestra, I had to play quite softly so as to blend and not be a musical bully. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Besser Posted June 2, 2015 Share Posted June 2, 2015 Yes, it is an Edgley Ab/Eb on loan from a friend in the UK. Without it, I would not have been able to do this gig. The orchestra (you can see the back of the conductor's head in the photo) was willing to adjust their low period tuning to exactly a semi-tone flat. This section is in A, so the Ab concertina did the trick, though I thought of the music as being in G. The opera was great fun but now it's over. I wish I could keep my costume. Wish I could have been there! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
